My 2001 yukon denali cut out on me the other day towed it home changed the fuel filter still started for 15 secs then cut out now it wont start checked the relay started for 2 secs and cut out and wont start again I'm pretty sure its the fuel pump now but before I change it is there a way to check it or could it be something else? It trys to start every time just sounds like it isnt getting fuel.

SOURCE: 1999 GMC Jimmy won't start.

firstly where is fuel pump relay as i have never seen a GMC jimmy sorry about that but have you ever seen a foden ?? well the first thing is to check the fuse,if fuse is ok which can be checked by looking at it as its transparent or a piece of wire with a light bulb .across the battery.to find the relay is easy if you dont know where it is,When this piece of americana decides to work just turn ignition on and listen for the click of relay ,then when it doesnt start listen for click again or rather an absence of a click,sounds more like a dodgy pump in the tank or the connections going to it.when it wont start try thumping the fuel tank with the ignition on and if it is a sticky pump you might hear it start then at least you will know where the fault is.Another fault that i have come across with relays is that where the relay is passing a heavy load then its possibe for the contacts to burn inside the relay.When this happens then if it is possible to seperate the relay cover and clean the contacts with a points file (remember them ) or a piece of fine emery paper if the cover breaks taking it apart then use a bit of black insulating tape to repair the cover.Thats assuming the pump is in the tank and not bolted to the chassis near the fuel tank but that design with external pump i havent seen on a europeon car for nearly 20yrs .

your getting too much air in chamber on igintion probly cause by a faulty intake and or a faulty tps (throttle positioning sensor) sounds like intake is sucking more air that fuel which is giving a bad air fuel mix in chamber also try checking your mass air could be faulty as well

SOURCE: 2000 gmc jimmy wont start fuel pump comes on and cuts off...

When you hook the pressure test guage to shrader valve on fuel rail what it reads is what the pressure is from pump, around 60 p.s.i. all you need to do is hook up the guage and turn on key, you do not have to turn engine over, and if pump is good it will shoot up to 58 or 60 right now.

Bought it and drove it home. next day started it, died, and wont start. Changed cap, rotor, plugs, wires, fuel filter. and last night fuel pump. running out of ideas

your anti theft device is activated,you need to lock and unlock your doors a couple times with the key fob,not the key,and then you need to put the key in the ignition and start it,if you dont have your key fob,call your car dealer to get a new one,they are programmed for each car only,you cannot bypass it.

2000 GMC Yukon Denali just changed o2 sensor tps sensor pcv valve fuel filter and did an oil change. Now it wont start. Drove it 3 days before what's the problem

Good question. There are certain things an engine needs to start and run.
> air-fuel mixture
> volumetric efficiency
> compression
> ignition

Which of these things is your engine missing?

Nobody can tell you over the internet without first checking the vehicle out to determine which of these things are missing. Even if we knew which one, there are MANY things that can be the possible cause of each of these things to not be correct.

Plain and simple, the vehicle is going to have to get checked out.

Anybody who tries to tell you any different does not know anything about automotive diagnosis and repair.

2002 Yukon Hesitation when starting- No checking engine lights!!

This can be fuel pump related or just fuel filter related, spark plugs and injectors.
When engine is cold vaporization of gasoline is minimum. When fuel vapor is less than required and the fuel mixture is not ideal, ignition happens harder than it does under ideal running conditions of engine. When fuel pups is sweak, or filter is limiting, or fuel injectors are not injecting gasoline with improper pattern inside engine, or just becasue of corroded spark plugs, cold engine faces difficulties during first ignition.

PS: sometimes car starts and stalls.it fails to start once more. this can be a sign of broken crank position sensor. FYI.
